Répertoire de la statuaire grecque et romaine
A Paris repertory of Greek and Roman statuary compiled by the scholar Salomon Reinach and published by E. Leroux in 1897, intended for students of classical sculpture and art historians. Its pictures are plain line engravings of draped standing and seated figures, male and female, arranged in groups on the page, with some headless torsos and fragments. A designer might take from them the classical drapery folds, contrapposto stances and seated throne poses that define antique sculpture.
